<p>What if i didn't pass it the first time? I heard that they will put those people into a writing class and let them take the test again? But what if u still didn't pass? Are they going to kick you out of the school if you don't pass the first year?</p>
<p>If you didn’t pass, they will just place you into a core course by looking at your score. When you take this course, you just need to pass it and then you move on in the writing sequence. I don’t believe you need to take the actual test again.</p>
<p>I didn’t pass the first time around so I signed up for a specific section of the core course that was for people who didn’t pass, then towards the end of the quarter you take the test again. I passed the second time but I know a lot of people who didn’t. They go on to take another writing course (Writing 20) and then turned in a portfolio at the end of the quarter and if they did a good job they satisfied the writing requirement. I believe if you don’t pass that they have another writing course but don’t worry about it, i believe no one has yet to be kicked out of the university because they haven’t satisfied the requirement. everybody I know does by the time they finish Writing 20.</p>
<p>ohhh, i was worrying about that.</p>
<p>Lol, I don’t think it’s even possible to fail a placement exam, since it’s not really a pass/fail kinda thing, know what I mean?</p>
